Comic panels taken out of comics so we can make fun of them!! We love the golden age stuff!

Rules:

  1. Comics must come from actual comic books. No AI or Photoshops.

  2. Single panels are preferred.

  3. Comics should be unintentionally funny. Spider-man cracking wise is not what this is about.

  4. Don't be a dick.

  5. I can't believe I've had to add this... NO RACISM.

ofc they understood it but... it's not like they were just going to shut down DC and Marvel. Instead, a lot of folks went and started independent publishers, many of which do not focus on superheros, and now we have library shelves full of graphic novels in various genres.

They already were being printed by third party publishers in other genres. They just weren't taken seriously. That was the Black Freighter part.
